After about a week, Qiao Anhao saw the publicity for Lu Jinnian's latest movie on the entertainment news. She then found out that he was filming in Rome.
The days continued to pass by, and in the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. It was the end of April.
Qiao Anhao had just entered the entertainment industry for less than half a year, so she had neither fame nor popularity. Even though she had gotten a role in "To the End of Time" with Lu Jinnian's help, the drama was still in post-production and hadn't been released yet. Even if there were advertisements, they would only use famous actors, so Qiao Anhao still wasn't that famous. There weren't any new movies looking for her to star in, nor were there any advertisements for her to endorse, so she had a lot of free time every day.
On the other hand, Zhao Meng had always been doing her job as a manager, constantly helping her get auditions for new movies.
The entertainment industry had always been a complicated place, and there were many times when being pretty and good at acting didn't mean you could get a role. Hence, in half a month, Qiao Anhao had gone for eight auditions, and every single one of them had ended in failure.
And today was Qiao Anhao's ninth audition, and the result was the same as the previous eight, she still didn't get a role.
"Qiao Qiao, it's been almost a month. Don't even mention a decent role, we haven't even gotten a role as the main character's maid. If this goes on, we're going to starve to death."
In contrast to Zhao Meng's impatience, Qiao Anhao was extremely calm. She sat in the front passenger seat, casually scrolling through her phone as she said in a steady voice, "Weren't we like this in the past?"
When Qiao Anhao said this, she coincidentally saw "Lu Jinnian" at the top of Sina Weibo. She instantly stopped talking, and after a while, as though nothing had happened, she continued to say, "What's more, even if I starve to death, I won't let you starve to death."
"Of course I know you won't let me starve to death. Even if you don't get any roles in the first half of the year, you'll still give me a monthly salary. But Qiao Qiao, your parents only left you so much, it can't sustain your spending." As Zhao Meng said this, she glanced at Qiao Anhao through the rearview mirror. After a while, she continued to say, "Qiao Qiao, why don't you ask Lu Jinnian for another role? While you're still able to get some benefits from him, use him as much as you can. Anyway, he doesn't treat you well, it would be a waste if you don't use him. What's more, his money has nothing to do with you. Your parents passed away early, and you were brought up by your uncle. Don't tell me that you still want to live the rest of your uncle's charity?"
